A Look at Ourselves from an Extraterrestrial's PerspectiveBy Barbara Lamb. M.S., MFCC

When embarking on a process of psychotherapy with a client who suspected she might have had lifelong disturbing experiences with extraterrestrials, I never guessed that the ensuing year of weekly sessions would bring forth material which expanded and turned my perceptions of our human race and reality upside down. In addition to hypnotic regressions to relive and release the trauma from my client's abductions, we discovered that on separate occasions she was channelling information from an alleged extraterrestrial male being from the Antares star system. This being suggests we call him Ohana, which (coincidently?) is the Hawaiian word for 'extended family', and is currently used frequently on the island of Maui as the name of a chain of banks and other facilities. He says he does not really have a name, in keeping with the ways of his planet, but he is conforming to our human need to identify all people and things by name.

We 'followed our noses' from session to session, asked questions of interest to us. and received from Ohana a substantial outpouring of material from this extraterrestrial's perspective, much of which reflects on us as human beings. Enough information has come forth to fill a book. This book may eventually be written by me, by my client, by her close friend who is keenly interested in this channelled material, and by Ohana himself … a four-authored book written with the mutually cooperative spirit and respect which Ohana continually encourages between all races in the cosmos. The following material is a compilation of thoughts about how he and his extraterrestrial friends see us humans, extracted from the larger body of channelled material. Reading this may help us reappraise who we are and what is our place in the cosmos. The sessions are continuing and more material will be coming forth: an 'intergalactic work-in-progress'. It is up to each of us readers to have our own reactions and draw our own conclusions. No official pronouncements are being made here about reality; simply the passing along of perceptions from a faraway source, an unusual (for us) point of view.

GP: And do they conform with a simple contact with so few people? Why don’t they talk openly to humanity about these things?

RVG: Well, they are also already among us. Living among us. We are physically similar to them and don’t notice it. They are assisting humanity in some ways; not just recently but from thousands of years ago. It happens that we have not decided to observe them in earnest nor connected through that “real feeling” to be able to find them although they have been assisting us by connecting with different ancient cultures as those found here (in Perú) and in other parts of the planet.

But there’s something very important. When you are before them, you feel the energy and, if we really listened to that real feeling then we would be able to detect them, in the streets, in school, in business places, we would be able to.

GP: Does this mean that they are visibly among us?

RVG: Yes, visibly but we don’t make an effort to try to detect them.

GP: But, even so, why they don’t come out in the open in a way which everyone can recognize?

In an effort to debunk UFO abduction/contact events, skeptics often claim that what experiencers interpret as abductions by ETs are actually fabrications by the individual or conditions created by natural brain functions. One of the most commonly blamed is false memories.

Generally defined as memories of events that didn’t really happen, false memories are a common function of the human mind that can be created in various ways - purposely as a fabrication or fantasy, when an individual intends to do something and doesn’t follow through but thinks they did, or as a result of reading a book or article, or seeing a TV show or movie about the subject. It’s also possible for a false memory to be created as a suggestion introduced to an individual while they are in a highly suggestible state of mind, such as deep meditation or hypnotic trance. There is no doubt that false memories exist and everyone with a normal mind experiences them. As such, it is possible, and even likely, that some ET abduction/contact experiences can be attributed to false memories. However, this is not proof that all reported experiences are actually false memories. Debunkers exhibit their shortsightedness and misunderstanding of the functions of the human mind when they contend that if there is no incontrovertible proof that an ET abduction/contact event happened, then the event necessarily was a false memory fabricated by an individual with a desire to add some spice to his life or inserted into an individual’s mind by an incompetent or unethical therapist. While false memories may be recalled as part of an ET contact/abduction experience, their presence is not proof that the entire experience was false.

Recently, I was approached by an individual who told me he needed help with some problems resulting from childhood ET abduction/contact experiences, but he didn’t want to see a therapist because he was afraid of hypnosis. I reassured him that (1) hypnosis is not dangerous, and (2) even though hypnosis is sometimes used by Experiencer therapists, it isn’t the only tool therapists have to help him. Even when hypnosis is used, it is nearly always supplemented with other things.

Editor’s note: One of the more controversial topics in the field of ufology and exopolitics is the one of extraterrestrials living among us. We recently published an article from Karel Rasin highlighting two such cases in the Czech Republic, which generated a lot of interest, and some discussions on Facebook. So we thought it would be a good idea to ask the members of our panel what their thoughts and experiences on the subject were. Virtually all of them, however, politely declined to submit a contribution, this time. Not that the topic is taboo. But the replies were all the same: most did not feel comfortable writing about a topic that they did not have any first- or even second-hand experience with. They all were familiar with the stories, but nobody thought the available evidence was very persuasive. Only Gerard Aartsen sent in the following piece.

Gerard Aartsen: Aliens living among us

According to the latest astrobiological insights, “once life originates, the evolution of organisms functionally similar to plants or animals on Earth will naturally follow given enough time and a suitable environment.” A very similar notion was expressed at the opposite side of the spectrum that ranges from scientific reasoning to religious faith, by Pope John XXIII who said, after an encounter with a being from a space ship in 1961: “The sons of God are everywhere. Sometimes we have difficulties in recognizing our own brothers.”

This case was released by Exopolitics Czech Republic. It comes from an eyewitness living in Prague and concerning the very interesting case of the real possibility that Extraterrestrials are living amongst us.

Case 1

I will write all that I can remember from this event.

It happened in 1988 to 1989. Back then, I was working for the company “Drobné zboží” (Small Goods) as Head of the Operating Unit on Cracow Street (Krakovská), on the first street on the former House of Fashion (Dům Módy, Prague Center). I don’t remember the house number, but there was a shop with cheap goods for many years prior to my joining the company. This small shop had only one counter and a little shop window, just for one employee. My shop mostly had regular customers thanks to our specific goods suited mainly to people associated with merry-go-rounds and other dealers. I did window dressing, make bargain offers – like clothes, shoes, make-ups, perfumes etc., and it attracted the interests of passers-by. They stopped and stared at the storefront before entering. I was often alone inside and looked out through the shop window guessing who would enter. It was the first time when I saw her. A middle-aged woman, dressed in a light elegant coat with a belt firmly done up. She wore a beautiful, typically tied cashmere scarf, and she caught my attention with her dark sunglasses as it was almost autumn. Both her hands were buried deep in her pockets, looking in through the shop window, without any interest for the merchandise on display.

I thought: “What do you want here? The House of Fashon is a little further down the street for such a lady like you.”

Roberto Vargas de la Gala is an auditor and accountant; the youngest vice dean of the College of Accountants in the city of Tacna, in southern Peru between the Pacific Ocean and an extension of the Atacama Desert. He is a balanced, responsible person who now lives with his family in the city of Lima still working in his profession. In the 1990’s he worked in a managerial and accounting position inside a major soda pop company and at that time he didn’t particularly care about extraterrestrial issues. Between 1991 and 1993 his company sent him for a training stash in Chile were one of the requisites was to enroll into a personal development course. Thus, he took the three levels of the Silva Mind Control Method also going back to work in Tacna.

In 1994 Roberto was driving his car when he was hit by a minivan. The car he was driving was completely destroyed and two other passengers in it were harmed but he didn’t even suffer a minor scratch. As the accident was happening he saw the roof of his car acquire a triangular shape and, even while making an emergency maneuvering, he simultaneously saw his physical body driving from a position floating above the car. That body was also surrounded by something which looked like a protective golden cushion.
